Tina McGuire Theatre
How does one choice spark a chain reaction in the world around you? Stewart/Owen Dance’s latest creation, where i end, you begin, is a brand-new production that follows six dancers whose stories are intertwined through grace, passion and whimsy. This performance takes place in the intimate Tina McGuire Theatre where the audience has the opportunity to sit closer to the dancers.
Stunning audiences last season with imaginative and impassioned performances, Wortham’s resident dance company Stewart/Owen Dance has produced an exciting collection of contemporary choreography that’s as “sensual” (Washington Post) as it is “humorous, elegant and wild” (Seattle Dances). Founded by husband-and-wife duo Gavin Stewart and Vanessa Owen, this award-winning company crafts intricate movements that offer a glimpse into the depths of the human spirit.

Seating for this performance is general admission, meaning you can choose where you’d like to sit. The Tina McGuire Theatre is an intimate space that places you in close proximity to the dancers. Second row seating provides a bit more distance from the performance.
The total run time is approximately 75 minutes, with one 10-minute intermission. The first act will last approximately 30 minutes. Please prioritize your comfort by visiting restrooms ahead of time as access will be limited once the performance begins.
